Brian’s Teaching Philosophy – The key to improving your golf game is to first recognize your strengths and weaknesses. Once players understand their weaknesses, they must address what causes their particular symptoms. Brian helps his students understand the difference between cause and effect, allowing players to better self-correct their mistakes. Brian helps his students ‘be their own coach,’ by teaching them how to understand their feedback and apply correct adjustments when they make errors in order to achieve both short and long term results. All golf lessons with Brian include video analysis. Brian teaches golfers of all ages and skill levels.
